This is the first time I’ve seen this footprint thing done like this. Usually you see it with a picture of a beach scene, but then those don’t look like they’re designed for children, just adults who think like children, and, you know, I’m a sucker for protecting the kiddies, so I felt compelled to modify this fucking thing. Glad you all like it.

Since the Friendly Atheist is also a bit of a thief — and stole Philly’s work to post himself — I left this as part of a much longer comment at that blog.

But here’s my own version of the Footprint poem:

The Lord will always walk with you,And Santa Claus will, too.The Easter bunny joins them both.They’ll all be there for you.And don’t forget the fairy, Child,Who pays you for your tooth.The monster underneath your bed?He’s also based on truth.But as you grow much wiser, dearYou won’t be so naive. And soon those guys will disappear.They’re only make-believe.
